Bensalem Police Seek Man In $18,000 Fraud Case

BENSALEM, PA — Bensalem Police are asking for the public's help to catch a man they say pulled off an $18,000 fraud recently.

And, they say, the rip-off might not have been his only crime in the area.

On Wednesday, Nov. 28, the man walked into Delaware Valley Lift Truck in Bensalem and fraudulently bought four electric pallet jacks worth more than $18,000, according to police. They say he is suspected in similar crimes in the tri-county area.

Also called walkies or power jacks, electric pallet jacks are pieces of hydraulic equipment used for the low-level moving of loaded pallets in warehouses and other places items are stored.

Police shared a pair of photographs of the man on Friday, hoping someone would recognize him. Anyone with information about his identity is asked to contact Detective Neil Tropiano at 215-633-3679.
